【054】Dining table for four

Hearing what Ritsu Zhaochuan was asking, I subconsciously pressed my neckline. Since I didn't answer immediately, Ritsu asked again.

"I didn't wear it." I say.

"You wore it. Before getting in the car, your necklace is still around your neck. Ritsu Zhaochuan said coldly.

I had no choice but to explain in detail: "I was wearing it at that time, and I took it off and put it in my pocket before I entered Xu Chen's house." ”

"Oh, I deliberately took it off before entering Xu Chen and Xiao Yu's house-" Lu Zhaochuan deliberately dragged out his tone, "Are you afraid that Xu Chen will think too much or are you afraid that Xiao Yu will know." He clearly meant something.

"I asked you before if you knew the person in the necklace, you knew it, but you lied to me that you didn't know. There is no need to have something to say at this moment. ”

"I was just curious, and I thought that necklace was going to grow around your neck, and I never took it off again."

Indeed, as Ritsu Zhaochuan said, it was an object that I did not want to leave my body, and it was my sustenance. However, as the memories slowly returned, I was no longer as cautious and fearful and cowering as I had been at the beginning. Now I don't have to rely on an old object to make sure I'm safe.

I pulled my necklace out of my pocket. Look down at the fat shining star in the palm of your hand.

Instantly, my heart was full of emotions.

"I don't want to rely too much on it. I'm trying to quit it. ”

It accompanied me during my long blank time in Licheng, and it was the only physical evidence that I had a past.

"I think that if one day, I don't need it at all to prove my existence, my 'disease' should be cured."

After I finished thinking about it, I suddenly felt a little dazed. My mentality is completely different from the one I had when I first came to Beijing. I thought Ritsu Chuan would scoff at my feelings. Unexpectedly, he just said lightly: "Then come on!" ”

When he finished asking what he wanted to ask, he ticked out my belly. I asked, "Why do you have to stay at Xu Chen's house for dinner, don't you feel embarrassed at all?" ”

"You don't feel embarrassed, why should I be embarrassed." Ritsu Zhaochuan asked rhetorically.

When did I become the standard by which he acted!

I argued, "I stayed because you seemed comfortable and had to stay!" ”

"If you insisted on leaving, I would have left with you."

"I said it! I told you, 'Let's go.'" You have to stay and eat pasta! ”

"I can make pasta. I'm confident in my cooking. Don't you think my noodles are not delicious? ”

"Is it now a discussion about your cooking? I mean......"

"If you think it's delicious."

I felt helpless in this constant cycle of conversations full of consciousness flu. I couldn't help but sigh. I recalled the lunch we had at "Xu Chen and Xiao Yu's home" before. I think it was probably the hardest meal I've ever had in my memory!

None of us spoke, but a powerful blizzard brewed at the cramped table.

After Ritsu Zhaochuan made the pasta, he immediately said that he had no leisure to share the meal, so he brought the pot directly to the table and placed it in the center of the table.

Ritsu Zhaochuan is like a host, warmly inviting us to take a seat. Then he motioned for us to pick it up ourselves. I took a little food, thinking about how to say goodbye to Xiao Yu after the meal, and now I face Xiao Yu like a mussel, tightly closing the shell of the mussel, for fear of any more pain.

I picked onions as I thought. Since I don't like onions, I carefully pick them off before moving the chopsticks. When I was immersed in picking, Xu Chen, who was sitting opposite me, suddenly stood up and wanted to hand me the plate in his hand. Before I could react to what was going on, Lu Zhaochuan also got up, snatched Xu Chen's plate into his hand one step ahead of me, and stuffed his plate to Xu Chen. Only then did I notice that there were no onions in Xu Chen's plate, to be precise, Xu Chen had already picked the onions. It turned out that Xu Chen just wanted to exchange his plate of pasta with me. The frank posture of Lu Zhaochuan's interception halfway made Xu Chen stand in place, and looked at Lu Zhaochuan for a long time, and then, as if he had suddenly woken up from a big dream, he showed a sudden look, and then he sat down silently. Lu Zhaochuan stood holding Xu Chen's plate, looked at me and looked at Xiao Yu, and suddenly exchanged the plate in his hand with Xiao Yu.

Bang!

It seemed that something had exploded in my head, and the embarrassment was like a ghost stuck behind my back that I couldn't get rid of.

Next, I buried my head in my meal and worked hard to eat. I just want to hurry up and end this lunch that made me sit on pins and needles. But Ritsu Zhaochuan kept adding food to my plate in a very uninteresting way. He was as accurate as an alarm clock, keeping my plate before it was empty, and quickly and accurately filling my plate again.

- I'm enough!

I gestured to him with my eyes, warned him, and finally cursed him...... Ritsu Zhaochuan is still the same. His hand seems to be on a clamp, mechanically doing its job - clamping the surface for everyone!

The pot of noodles in the center of the table has repeatedly had the ability to grow on its own, and it seems that no matter how we eat it, it is always a pot with informative and sincere content.

I don't know how long it took, but when I finally saw the empty bottom of the pot and felt relieved, I saw Ritsu Terukawa looking at us with his chin in his hands, and a wisp of ...... seemed to slip across his face Can't get enough of it?

Then I found out that he had the least portion of the meal among us. However, he seemed busy from start to finish, busy observing us!

I followed his gaze to look at Xu Chen and Xiao Yu on the other side. Suddenly, my heart was beating like a drum. Xu Chen and Xiao Yu, no, it should be Xu Chen Xiao Yu and me, we are like mirror images of each other, repeating exactly the same actions with the same expressions. Because, we all have a lot of ulterior things - we don't dare to say it, and we don't even dare to reveal half of it on the skin. As a result, the face is expressionless and mechanically eating.

I felt embarrassed on top of each other.

As for Xu Chen and Xiao Yu, I don't dare to speculate......

It seems that Ritsu Terukawa turned up the air conditioning temperature of the carriage, and the interior of the carriage is like an oven at this time. I suddenly understood that I hadn't mistaken Lu Zhaochuan's expression before, he was indeed regretting, regretting that the good show he directed ended so quickly.

Today, the only person active at the silent and heavy table is him Ritsu Zhaochuan. His expression clearly indicates that he has not yet had enough fun, that he has not yet appreciated our embarrassment and entanglement. I finally understood why Ritsu Zhaochuan didn't share the meal. In this way, he extended our meal time, so that he could "watch" our good show.

I glared at Lu Zhaochuan beside me and suddenly became angry: "Lu Zhaochuan, it turns out that you did it on purpose, you are not hungry at all, you just want to see our jokes!" ”

The corners of Ritsu Terukawa's lips slowly rose upward, and he looked very happy to smile.

"What are you talking nonsense? I don't understand. ”

"Don't pretend!"

He suddenly looked at me, his eyebrows curled into a nice arc: "I think you seem to be back a little." ”

I felt creepy.

With my long-term knowledge of Ritsu Zhaochuan, I just think that he doesn't have a good temper and is a difficult person to get along with. But he always had certain moments that struck me that he was unfathomable. Every expression is full of meaning. If you go against him, you will die without a whole body, and you will never recover.

Ritsu Terukawa hit the steering wheel and braked on the side of the road safely. He started rubbing his wrists again. I thought it was because his hands were sore after making lunch. Now it dawned on him that this was his subconscious action, when he was planning something and thinking something.

I immediately tightened my seatbelt and glared at him warily.

And Ritsu Zhaochuan glanced at my clenched hand, and said leisurely: "Although I have never advertised myself as an honest and kind person. But it's not a pervert. You're thinking too much. ”

"Why did you park?"

"I just thought there was too much salt in the noodles just now. I'm thirsty and I want to buy a bottle of water to drink. ”

I swallowed, and that side was a little salty.

Ritsu Zhaochuan unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, and walked towards the shop next to the street.

Watching his back disappear behind the door of the convenience store, I was so relieved that I was so thirsty that I felt very thirsty. But at the moment I don't want to drink water, I want to nibble on a sweet, cold cone. Then I thought that it was strange that I wanted to eat ice on such a cold day.

I sat in the car and waited for the Ritsu Trurikawa.

After a long while, Ritsu Zhaochuan returned. He handed something in through the window and poked me in the face with it. It's cold. I looked sideways and he was holding a cone in his hand.

I was completely shocked: "You...... How do I know I want a cone? ”

"There are some things that not only Xu Chen knows, but I also know." "For example, someone who is thirsty when it's cold and wants to nibble on ice cream! Take it, buy it for you. ”

I could hear a slight softness in his tone.

I took the cone in my hand, my fingers surrounded by the cold of the ice cream, and the cold and sweet taste wrapped around my nose.

I watched Ritsu turn around the front of the car and sit back in the driver's seat.

I suddenly realized that Ritsu knew me better than I thought! If he had had been ill towards me, I would not have been his opponent at all, at least, I would not have been able to compete with him now. I suddenly thought of what Zhang Jifan had said to me before, and Lu Zhaochuan instructed Zhang Jifan to only pay me a small salary, and the rest should be recorded in the account to delay the cashing time. I'm the only employee in our store to do this. Moreover, if you think about it carefully, Ritsu Zhaochuan has not given me a list of the compensation I need to compensate, and I don't know how much I destroyed his model, have I paid off this debt to him? I used to be completely confused, and I didn't think about these questions at all, but now I suddenly think about it.

He wasn't short of money at all, so why would he do it? With such a careful mind, what is he planning and planning?

Thinking of this, I blurted out without thinking: "Ritsu Zhaochuan, are you a good person or a bad person?" ”

"What do you say?"

He smiled.

Instead of resenting my questioning, he asked me questions.
